Safety Summary
WARNING
• Do not use this winch for lifting, supporting, or transporting
people unless winch is approved for Man Rider
applications. Do not lift or support loads over people.
• The supporting structures and load-attaching devices used in
conjunction with this winch must provide an adequate safety
factor to handle the rated load, plus the weight of the winch
and attached equipment. This is the customer’s responsibility.
If in doubt, consult a registered structural engineer.

The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 generally places
the burden of compliance with the user, not the manufacturer.
Many OSHA requirements are not concerned or connected with
the manufactured product but are, rather, associated with the final
installation. It is the owner’s and user’s responsibility to
determine the suitability of a product for any particular use. It is
recommended that all applicable industry, trade association,
federal, state and local regulations be checked. Read all operating
instructions and warnings before operation.
Rigging: It is the responsibility of the operator to exercise
caution, use common sense and be familiar with proper rigging
techniques. Refer to ASME B30.9 for rigging information,

New York, NY 10015.
This manual has been produced by Ingersoll Rand to provide
dealers, mechanics, operators and company personnel with
information required to install, operate, maintain and repair the
products described herein.
It is extremely important that mechanics and operators be familiar
with servicing procedures of these products, or like or similar
products, and are physically capable of conducting the
procedures. These personnel shall have a general working
knowledge that includes:
1.Proper and safe use and application of mechanics common
hand tools as well as special Ingersoll Rand or
recommended tools.
2.Safety procedures, precautions and work habits established
by accepted industry standards.
Ingersoll Rand cannot know of, or provide all the procedures by
which product operations or repairs may be conducted and the
hazards and/or results of each method. If operation or
maintenance procedures not specifically recommended by the
manufacturer are conducted, it must be ensured that product
safety is not endangered by the actions taken. If unsure of an
operation or maintenance procedure or step, personnel should
place the product in a safe condition and contact supervisors and/
or the factory for technical assistance.
Ingersoll Rand winches are manufactured in accordance with the
latest ASME B30.7 standards.
The National Safety Council, Accident Prevention Manual for
Industrial Operations, Eighth Edition and other recognized safety
sources make a common point: Employees who work near
suspended loads or assist in hooking on or arranging a load
should be instructed to keep out from under the load. From a
safety standpoint, one factor is paramount: conduct all lifting or
pulling operations in such a manner that if there were an
equipment failure, no personnel would be injured. This means
keep out from under a raised load and keep out of the intended
path of any load.

SAFE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The following warnings and operating instructions have been
adapted in part from American Society of Mechanical Engineers
(Safety) Standard ASME B30.7 and are intended to avoid unsafe
operating practices which might lead to injury or property
damage.
Ingersoll Rand recognizes that most companies who use winches
have a safety program in force at their facility. In the event that
some conflict exists between a rule set forth in this publication
and a similar rule already set by an individual company, the more
stringent of the two should take precedence.
Safe Operating Instructions are provided to make an operator
aware of dangerous practices to avoid and are not necessarily
limited to the following list. Refer to specific sections in the
manual for additional safety information.
1.Only allow personnel trained in safety and operation of this
product to operate and maintain this winch.
2.Only operate a winch if you are physically fit to do so.
3.When a “DO NOT OPERATE” sign is placed on winch, or
controls, do not operate winch until sign has been removed
by designated personnel.
4.Before each shift, check winch for wear and damage. Never
use a winch that inspection indicates is worn or damaged.
WARNING LABEL
5.Never lift a load greater than rated capacity of the winch.
Refer to labels attached to winch or to “SPECIFICATIONS”
section.
6.Keep hands, clothing, etc., clear of moving parts.
7.Never place your hand in the throat area of a hook or near
wire rope spooling onto or off of winch drum.
8.Always rig loads properly and carefully.
9.Be certain the load is properly seated in saddle of hook. Do
not support load on tip of hook.
10. Do not “side pull” or “yard”.
11. Always ensure that you, and all other people, are clear of the
path of the load. Do not lift a load over people.
12. Never use the winch for lifting or lowering people, and never
allow anyone to stand on a suspended load.
13. Ease slack out of wire rope when starting a lift or pull. Do
not jerk the load.
14. Do not swing a suspended load.
15. Do not leave a suspended load unattended.
16. Never operate a winch with twisted, kinked or damaged wire
rope.
17. Pay attention to the load at all times when operating the
winch.
18. Never use the winch wire rope as a sling.
19. After use, or when in a non-operational mode, winch should
be secured against unauthorized and unwarranted use.
Each unit is shipped from the factory with warning label shown.
If the label is not attached to your unit, order a new label and
install it. Refer to the parts list for part number. Label is shown
smaller than actual size.
